Rhythmbox and Exaile Silent



Hello Friends

After last night's update, both on the laptop and the desktop Rhythmbox
and Exaile on Fedora 9 can't play audio anymore. And on both the
machines 'mplayer' (compiled) can play them.

When run from a terminal, Rhythmbox is giving this message:

<<
(rhythmbox:3211): Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Unable to grab media player
keys: Method "GrabMediaPlayerKeys" with signature "su" on interface
"org.gnome.SettingsDaemon" doesn't exist


And Exaile is giving this:

<<
Exaile 0.2.13
which: no serpentine in (/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/lib/ccache:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/dd/bin)
which: no brasero in (/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/lib/ccache:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/dd/bin)
which: no k3b in (/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/lib/ccache:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/dd/bin)
A supported CD burning program was not found in $PATH, disabling burning capabilities.

The messages are identical on both the machines. On both the machines
Gnome is there, but, Xfce was the running desktop when it happened. And
on the laptop I tried it by starx-ing into Gnome too, with the same
result. Tried 'yum erase' and 'yum install' once again. No results.

Any help anyone? Or, it is a temporary thing, likely to get corrected
in some coming update?
